    I'd just like to take a moment to say that I have not had any memory leak
    problems with 1.8.0pX and in fact, the process size stays much more constant
    than under 1.7.9.  As such, it would help if when you report that your moo
    is memory leaking, if you told us exactly what kind of things you MOO does.
    Heavy regexp use, FUP, any extra processing, non-standard forked tasks, etc.
    I'd like to think that E_MOO would see the same problems as everyone else,
    and more, because of the in-db parser (or perhaps my code is cleaner than I
    think, doubt it tho :) ), but this doesn't appear to be the case.

    Is this memory leak thing just a bandwagon effect? Or perhaps people are
    actually taking a look at the process lists for once and realizing how much
    memory a MOO normally takes up. :)

    Is anyone else NOT having any problems?  How wide spread is this?  Is there
    anything in common on the MOOs that are having the problems?

    Andy.
